Melissa officinalis
As one of our rarest and most expensive oils, Melissa essential oil has a wide range of benefits and uses. Due to its positive effect on mood, Melissa has long been used to help calm feelings when applied topically. Also known as lemon balm, the sweet, fresh, citrus-like fragrance of Melissa was known to attract honeybees. This is where the name “Melissa” came from, which is Greek for honey bee.

Sourcing
Why Bulgaria?
Bulgaria is an agricultural haven for growing aromatic plants and is home to people rich in expertise. Near the Black Sea, the sunny and dry climate, coupled with the sandy, well-drained soil, make the growing conditions in Bulgaria ideal.
How Does it Work?
Also known as Lemon Balm, Melissa is a perrennial herbaceous plant that grows between 45 to 60 cm in height. The essential oil comes from steam distilling the leaf of the plant.
Generating Jobs & Preserving Legacy
Bulgaria has historically boasted some of the world’s premier essential oil research, development, and production. However, this faltered in the Post-Communist era due to the government’s financial support for wheat, sunflower, and corn. This inspired us to establish the Esseterre facility in Dobrich, Bulgaria. Although Esseterre is owned by doTERRA, it really is a Bulgarian firm, built and managed by Bulgarians. Expert managers, distillers, farmers, and engineers combine their impeccable skills and a shared commitment to positively impact their communities. The establishment of Esseterre has provided significant economic revitalisation to the Dobrich region. It has brought a multi-million investment and many jobs to a country where nearly a quarter of its population lives at or below the global poverty line.
